A new platform, the Interfaith National Hub on Family Health and Wellbeing, has been launched in Kenya to address critical healthcare gaps, particularly concerning adolescent pregnancy and maternal/child mortality.

• The initiative aims to place communities at the center of healthcare delivery and promote high-impact interventions for women, children, and adolescents.
• Key organizations involved include the Faith to Action Network, Inter-Religious Council of Kenya (IRCK), Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims (SUPKEM), and the Ministry of Health.
• Data revealed that despite over 90 percent of parents supporting adolescent health discussions, access to information and youth-friendly services remains limited, with fewer than 1 in 20 boys and 1 in 40 girls having adequate sexual and reproductive health knowledge.
